Happy 4th of July! When my children were young, summer meant weekend barbecues around the pool. My refrigerator was always stocked with burgers, hot dogs, corn on the cob and watermelon.

I want to thank you, our readers, for all that you do to help those hopes become reality. Thank you for your input, your kind words, your enthusiasm, and for giving me the best job I’ve ever had!

ex p e r t c o n t r i b utor HOPE HEALTH & WELLNESS
What to Know Before Seeing a Chiropractor By Dr. Andrew Hope
Chiropractors can help patients achieve/maintain optimal health. Many people see a chiropractor regularly because they know that doing so is one of the best ways to get healthy, avoid injury and feel great. What Does A Chiropractor Do? Chiropractors treat the body through alignment or adjustment. The whole idea behind chiropractic care is that the spine and body become unbalanced, causing a person to carry weight or stress on one side of the body. The spine can also become contorted, resulting in nerve pain. Chiropractors focus on getting the body back in balance. An alignment feels like a mixture between having joints popped and getting a massage. The patient usually lies on a table while the chiropractor has him/her cross the
arms, hold the knees up, and move into other positions. The chiropractor puts pressure on the appropriate area until the joints and spine pop back into position. It doesn’t hurt; in fact, many people say it feels good. The whole process is pretty quick; an appointment typically takes 30 minutes to an hour. Who Can See A Chiropractor? People of all ages can see a chiropractor. In fact, many professionals recommend that newborn babies see a chiropractor right after birth. Moving through the birth canal can be traumatizing for the child. In some cases the child experiences shoulder pain, spine or neck pain, or similar ailments that can lead to acid reflux, sleep problems, or other issues. Even the tiniest baby can benefit from chiropractic care. There are pediatric chiropractors, as well as “regular” chiropractors who see adults of all ages. An alignment can be beneficial to anyone. What Can a Chiropractor Treat? If you have neck, shoulder, or back pain, you should see a chiropractor. A misplaced disc, nerve pain or pain from whiplash can be safely treated by a skilled chiropractor. This is probably the most common reason people go. A chiropractor can also help pregnant women with pain during pregnancy and can help relax the uterus so that the baby moves into the proper position for birth. This is in addition to treating simple infections and discomforts. For more information or to schedule a visit, call Hope Health at 561.686.0120.

Enjoy a July Play Date with PBG Recreation Submitted by the City of Palm Beach Gardens
Since 1985, America has celebrated July as the nation’s official Park and Recreation Month. Created by the National Recreation and Park Association (NRPA), Park and Recreation Month specifically highlights the vital and powerful role that local parks and recreation (such as Palm Beach Gardens Recreation) play in conservation, health and wellness, as well as social equity efforts in communities all across the country. This year, it’s all about discovering the power of play with your local parks and recreation facilities. Whether you’re learning a new sport like pickleball or meeting your friends on the playground, Palm Beach Gardens parks and
recreation facilities are the places where everyone can play, regardless of age or ability. NRPA and the City of Palm Beach Gardens encourage everyone to get out there and experience the power of play for themselves. In Palm Beach Gardens, you can celebrate Park and Recreation month by attending Movie Nights & Food Truck Bites on July 21, viewing the “Wildlife” art exhibit at City Hall, having your child participate in an awesome summer camp, or visiting the refreshing Gardens Summer GreenMarket at STORE every Sunday from 9am-1pm. “July is the perfect time to highlight all the benefits parks and recreation can provide right here in Palm Beach Gardens,” says
Recreation Director Laura Schuppert. Nationally, NRPA celebrates Park and Recreation Month with a weekly contest encouraging people to show why play is so important in their lives. They can also share this with the hashtag #PlayOnJuly. For more information about the contest and/or Park and Rec Month in general, visit www.nrpa.org/July.

co ver st o r y THE WAL SH FAM ILY
Zen with a Z – and a “Sea” By Darla Parris Smallwood
I must go down to the seas again, for the call of the running tide Is a wild call and a clear call that may not be denied; And all I ask is a windy day with the white clouds flying, And the flung spray and the blown spume, and the sea-gulls crying. If you didn’t know better, you might think Jupiter’s own Billy Walsh had penned this verse from John Masefield’s poem, “Sea Fever.” Originally from Fort Lauderdale, Billy spent years living and working in the North and West, but was inevitably drawn back to Florida’s irresistibly beautiful beaches and outdoor lifestyle. As a child, Billy regularly enjoyed boating and fishing with his father and grandfather. He also liked drawing and painting, with the ocean and the myriad of magnificent creatures that call it home, often serving as his inspiration. Later, “grown-up Billy” majored in marketing at the University of Florida, and after graduation, his work took him to Boston, then California, and ultimately back to Beantown again. As fate would have it, he was watching a Gator game in Boston when he met Alyson, another UF grad who grew up in Fort Lauderdale and Weston. The couple married in 2010. When their son (now four-and-a-half years old) was 8

born, the clarion call of Florida, much like Masefield’s call of the sea, became undeniable. No fan of New England winters, Billy and Alyson longed to return to Florida’s warm coastal waters. Billy also longed to finally follow his childhood passion for capturing the magic of the ocean and sea life, through his art. There was no place better to satisfy both yearnings, it seemed, than Jupiter. “The pristine waterways here, the ‘preserve’ nature of the

environment, the ‘old Florida’ feel…” says Billy. So, in 2013, the Walshes moved to Abacoa’s New Haven area, which Billy describes as “a gorgeous, well-planned and well-kept community full of wonderful families.” “We’re so close to the beach, which is great because we love paddle-boarding, boating, fishing and snorkeling; and Continued page 10

we hope to get into diving soon. Anything related to the beach or the ocean is for us. Our son already loves it, and we hope that his one-year-old sister will grow up loving it too.” In Jupiter, Billy’s once-again proximity to the sea (and the many activities it affords) quickly reignited his artistic spark. With both marketing and entrepreneurial experience already under his belt, he launched Shark Zen (sharkzen.com), an online business offering his original ocean life-inspired designs on tee and performance shirts, decals, hats and art prints. “We bring you clean, yet edgy sea life designs in stylish color combinations that relate to each species’ environment and characteristics… It’s all about ‘connecting with your inner shark,’ translating the powerful experience of looking for sea life…being exhilarated by it…” Billy explains. Because he believes that everyone can and should benefit from that kind of interaction, Billy donates five percent of each order’s proceeds to help send at-risk children fishing, snorkeling, or paddle boarding for the first time. He then chronicles each child’s experience via social media and his website. “I know the impact that those kinds of experiences can have on a kid, and I want as many kids as possible to enjoy them,” says Billy. “The support from our community has been so positive. I can’t think of a friend who hasn’t shown interest in our products or what we’re doing at Shark Zen. If your neighbors support you, some would say you’re already on a pretty good track.”

Meanwhile, Alyson, whose own career is on a “pretty good track,” helps others in her distinct way, working as a physician assistant in the electrophysiology branch of cardiology. “We love living in Jupiter and Abacoa. Alyson and I are always open to meeting new people. If, like us, they happen to have little kids too, that’s especially nice. I guess you could say we’re just happy people enjoying life.” ————————————————————————————————————— Do you have a story to share, or do you know a neighbor who does?

Peggy Adams Seeks Volunteers to
Foster Animals, Save Lives
Provided by Lauren N. Ellis, Events and Marketing Manager, Peggy Adams Animal Rescue League
Peggy Adams Rescue League, the largest animal rescue shelter in Palm Beach County, provides services to over 45,000 dogs, cats, puppies and kittens each year. Along with Palm Beach County Animal Care and Control, its mission is to eliminate dog and cat euthanasia of adoptable animals in Palm Beach County by 2024 through their collaborative Countdown2Zero initiative. Although much progress has been made toward this goal through adoptions, the opening of a kitten nursery, TNVR (trap, neuter, vaccinate, and return), and a growing foster program, the League seeks even more community volunteers to serve as foster parents. Fosters provide short-term homes for dogs, cats, puppies and kittens until they are ready for adoption. A foster parent typically houses and cares for the animal(s) for two to four weeks. All foster parents are matched according to their available timeframe. Adams provides the foster parent with
all supplies and wellness requirements, including food, litter, toys, vaccines, etc., while the foster provides a temporary home, socialization, care and love. Being a foster parent not only saves lives, it also enriches the lives of every volunteer. Peggy Adams’ foster program also offers community service hours for children 10 to 17 years old. If you are interested in becoming a Peggy Adams Animal Rescue League foster parent, please contact Shannon Clounts at S.Clounts@peggyadams.org, call 561.472.8578 or visit PeggyAdams.org/Foster.

Plastic Surgery for the Arms By Dr. David Shuter
Toned and strong arms are a critical part of a woman's body. While less-than-perfect arms can often be camouflaged with long sleeves, Florida’s climate makes this solution far from optimal. Cosmetic arm issues are therefore a common concern in my office, but many women are unaware of the range of practical treatment options. As with every other medical decision, diagnosis of the problem is the first step. Multiple variables related to arm shape and appearance, skin quality/laxity and fatty deposition are important considerations in determining the most appropriate, effective treatment. Smoking, genetics, and weight gain and loss are important considerations as well, especially since they can add risk to treatment. A younger patient, especially if a bit overweight, might be unhappy due to a fatty collection in her upper arms. An older woman might suffer from loose skin alone, or, as is often the case, in combination with a fat issue. If the dominant issue is fat alone, the best treatment is fat reduction. This can range from weight loss and exercise, to Coolsculpting, to liposuction. Coolsculpting, the newest nonsurgical option, uses a freezing device to reduce the fatty bulge of the arms. This procedure is performed in our office while the patient watches TV or relaxes quietly for an hour. It can reduce the fatty bulge by approximately 20-25% per cycle. There is no down time, and recovery is typically relatively simple and quick.
Liposuction remains the gold standard for fatty bulge reduction. This common surgical outpatient procedure reduces and reshapes the arms. While there is some downtime as with any surgery, discomfort is minimal and results are predictable. If redundant skin is a variable, surgical excision is typically the best option for removing extra skin and tightening the upper arms. Otherwise known as a brachioplasty or an arm lift, this surgery will leave scars, typically from the armpit to the elbow, although this is customized to each individual's presentation. This outpatient procedure does result in some additional downtime, as more work is needed. However, if a woman has significant extra hanging skin, the transformation can be dramatic; the procedure has a high satisfaction rate. Many women tell me in their initial consultation that they shy away from wearing sleeveless dresses and tops because they feel ashamed of their upper arms. The above treatments provide options to these women, empowering them to stop hiding their arms under long sleeves in the Florida heat, and start proudly showing off their trim, toned arms in any outfit. David Shuter MD is a board-certified plastic surgeon with 25 years’ experience in the Jupiter area. He is the original inventor of the Illumask home-based phototherapy mask, and he has been featured on TV, as well as in national magazines and newspapers. You deserve the best. Please call 561.743.0244 for a personal consultation with Dr. Shuter.

Understanding and Preventing Periodontal Disease Provided by Appearance Implant Dental
Most people who have periodontal disease are not aware of it because the disease is usually painless in the early stages. Unlike tooth decay, which often causes discomfort, it is possible to have periodontal disease without noticeable symptoms. Having regular dental check-ups and periodontal examinations is essential to early detection of periodontal problems. Periodontal disease begins when plaque (a sticky, colorless, film of bacteria, food debris, and saliva) is left on the teeth and gums. The bacteria produce toxins (acids) that inflame the gums and slowly destroy the bone. Brushing and flossing regularly and properly ensures that plaque is not left behind to do its damage. Other than poor oral hygiene, several other factors can increase the risk of developing periodontal disease: •
Smoking or chewing tobacco. Tobacco users are more likely
•
•
•
•
•
than nonusers to develop plaque and tartar on their teeth. Certain tooth or appliance conditions. Bridges that no longer fit properly, crowded teeth, or defective fillings can trap plaque and bacteria. Many medications. Steroids, cancer therapy drugs, blood pressure meds, oral contraceptives and some other medications have side effects that reduce saliva, making the mouth dry so that plaque more easily adheres to the teeth and gums. Puberty, oral contraceptives and pregnancy. Since they all change hormonal levels, they can all increase gum tissue’s sensitivity to bacteria toxins. Systemic diseases. Diabetes, blood cell disorders, HIV / AIDS, etc. can lead to serious periodontal problems. Genetics. Some patients may be predisposed to a more aggressive type of periodontitis.

Overcome Adult ADHD Drug-Free; Improve Your Life By Rob Trube, Vice President, Marketing & Growth
Inattention. Distractibility. Disorganization. Impulsiveness. Restlessness. These are just a few common symptoms of adult ADHD or adult ADD. While popular culture suggests that ADHD is a condition that only affects kids, that is not the case. ADHD can be a serious issue for adults as well. Left untreated, it can lead to difficulties at work, depression, anxiety, relationship or marital problems, and even substance abuse. DID YOU KNOW? • 4.5% of U.S. adults have ADHD, according to the World Health Organization. (ncbi.nlm.nih.gov) • 8-10 million of these adults are undiagnosed. (adaa.org) • 60% of U.S. children with ADHD that is left untreated become adults with ADHD (adaa.org)
While no two people are exactly alike, the following behaviors tend to be more prevalent among adults with ADHD/ ADD: • Difficulties with structure and organization: Whether it’s forgetting to pay bills, coming into work late, missing appointments, or needing constant reminders about due dates, etc., adults with ADHD tend to be very “scatterbrained.” They often have trouble sticking with a single task; instead, they bounce from one to another, inhibiting productivity. • Struggling to relax or be still: Some adults who suffer from ADHD show the more traditional signs of hyperactivity, while others simply find it difficult to relax or “turn their brains off.” • Hyper-focus: Some adults with ADHD seem sloppy at work. Others present as paradoxically hard-
working because of their tendency to hyper-focus on a task once they get themselves “in the zone.” While this may not seem like a bad thing at face value, hyper-focusing can make people unaware of their surroundings, unable to change direction as priorities or expectations shift, and/ or neglectful of other tasks and commitments. • Poor listening skills or trouble retaining information • Procrastination If you think you or a loved one may have adult ADHD/ADD, testing by a professional to enable proper treatment is essential. Neurocore helps both children and adults tackle ADHD. Adults with ADHD have achieved improved concentration, better sleep and greater productivity through our program. Call us today at 800.600.4096 to schedule your assessment.
DEPRESSION. If you or someone you know is struggling with depression, there are options. At Neurocore Brain Performance Centers, we know depression can feel insurmountable and medications might not be the right fit. That’s why we use neurofeedback – an effective, med-free treatment using 21st century science and technology to treat conditions at the core. Our comprehensive assessment and innovative treatment plans are customized for each person’s unique needs. You’re not the same as everyone else, so don’t be treated like it.

Help! My Phone Got Wet! By Ryan Riley, Corporate Repair Manager
So you’ve accidentally poured a drink on your phone or laptop. Maybe your phone fell victim to a cannonball contest near the pool, or you were actually pushed into the pool with your phone in tow. All hope is not lost. It is possible to fix water-damaged phones, tablets and computers. Repair can succeed even if the device has been totally submerged in water. If you take the correct steps immediately, there is an excellent chance your device can be brought back to life again. Effects of Water on Electronics If the proper precautionary steps are not carried out after your device gets wet, it may still work for a while. However, you shouldn’t assume your device is fine. Features and functionality will start dying out as corrosion takes over. Even small amounts of water left inside your phone or tablet can quickly lead to corrosion. Eventually this can damage your device beyond repair. The tiny internal resistors and capacitors can corrode beyond function, and short circuits can fry essential electronic circuits. A professional repair company like iFixYouri has the expertise to remove any liquid or oil damage from your device and possibly get it working as good as new again. What to Do with Water-Damaged Electronics 1. Make sure the device is off and do not switch it on again.
2. Remove the SIM card if your device has cellular service. 3. Shake out any excess water and dry your device with a clean, dry cloth. 4. Put some rice (or silica if you have it) into a bag, and place the wiped-dry device into the rice immediately.* 5. As soon as possible, contact a repair company experienced with water-damaged devices. *The bag of rice is not a permanent, final solution. Although it will dry out your phone, the exposure to possibly damaging elements has already occurred. The liquids most commonly spilled on a device contain minerals and compounds that react over time with moisture in the air and even with other elements within the phone. Over time, these chemical reactions will catch up to you. The Real Fix for Water-Damaged Devices Make sure you find a company that specializes in repairing water damaged devices, rather than taking it to the manufacturer, who will most likely offer a reconditioned replacement at a premium price, and all the data from your old device might be gone for good. Companies specializing in fixing phones and computers damaged by water will give your device a thorough diagnostic. Then they can fix any problems that might prevent your device from operating normally. iFixYouri offers industry-leading water damage repair services for all devices, at its five Palm Beach county locations or via website mail-in service.
